Chinese Troops Enter Demchok, Protest Against Dalai Lama's Birthday Celebration

Chinese army personnel and civilians protested against the celebration of Tibetan leader Dalai Lama's birthday in Indian villages by entering Demchok in Ladakh and displaying banners and the Chinese flag. The Indian army has refused to comment on the incident. China's impatience with India's respect for Dalai Lama has always been evident and PM Modi's decision to wish the leader on his birthday may not have been well received.
